Show notes
Welcome to the very first episode of Risers & Lies.
In this one:
- What this show is (two friends, dry flies, Colorado trout water) and what it isn’t (a place for honest fish measurements)
- Our home water — and why you’ll never hear us name it on the internet
- The official R&L Exaggeration Index — a fish gains one honest inch per retelling
- Why we’re doing video, and whether Cole’s beard needs its own mic
From the episode
- Fly of the episode: sparkle dun, size 16, fished badly
Full transcript
Renato: Welcome to Risers & Lies, the show where trout lie — and so do we.
Cole: Mostly you.
Renato: That fish last Tuesday was twenty inches, Cole.
Cole: It was a stick, Renato. You netted a stick.
